Can anyone read these hallmarks?

This is the best photo I could get. any thoughts?

TIA, Lynnie

 

It's London sterling, looks like. Is 1723 possible? I think that's what I'm seeing... someone who knows what they're doing should be along soon.

 

London 18th C. You should be able to find the capital H date letter on 925.com

 

Very interesting!

 

I agree with evelyb on 1723. You may be able to find the maker on this page: http://www.silvermakersmarks.co.uk/Makers/London-IS-IZ.html#IS

 

What is the item.

The most common item from that period is the open salt cellar.

 

Looks like James Smith I (Which despite the name is still marked IS). 1720s date. Which would match the date-letter.

 

NICE!!!! Whatever it is!!!!

 

It's a small cup with a handle, in fair condition. Any thoughts on possible value?

Pictures and dimensions are essential.

Here a couple more pictures. Sorry, I don't have the dimensions (it's not mine yet!)

Nice little George I cup that has escaped being clobbered by some Victorian silversmith. So many were fancied up in the 19th C.

 

Thank you all for the help. I hope I can get my hands on it!
